had men willing to work for him yet.
Yes. I am forced to believe that also
from the way few men are working
to organize q third party and thereby
divide the prohibition forces which
would break prohibition down; yes
Mr.. Irwin the devil seems to have bis
workers yet, they come to rs in Sleeps
clothing (third party men) while really
they are ravenous wolves democrats. J
Now Mr.. Irwin don't like to
impugn q mans motives, but your
speech was certainly imrugnable. your
audience was not the ignoramuses you
seemed to take them to be. We could
all see plainly that your object was to
draw enough votes from the republi-
can party to let the democrats slip in.
That is just the game st. John played
in 1884 in New York. he drew just
enough votes from Blaine to give the
State to Cleveland and the conse-
quence is we are now cursed with a
saloon-favoring collaborating man for
president. Mr.. Irwin, if you want to
be a democrat it is your privilege to be
one, but don't try to sail under false
colors. You gave yourself completely
away. Like all.turn-coats, you were
very bitter against the party you have
left and very nice to the party you
formerly opposed. Do you see? do.

a cRoP OPINION.


The Condition OF wheat. Corn, Oats aud
Barley in Different Portions Of the Terri
tory.
Territorial Veterinarian J. O Alloway, after
an extended trip throughout the territory
writes Of the crop prospects as follows; The
average crop of wheat, oats, barley and corn
is perhaps, speaking generally, larger than
was ever known before In the territory In
the whent belt on the He'd river yalley
proper the area OF wheat sown IL greater
than that Of 1856, and the entire
crop is universally pronounced the
finest for many years-Traill, Grand
Forks, Walsh and Pembina counties have
never seen a finer crop, and II nOthtng hap
pens to materially interfere with what now
appears 10 be an assured crcp, The yield win
undoubtedly be the largest ever known
In the vally There are few localities in
the central portion Of the territory that
have suffered somewhat from drouth, but
they are merely local and the exception.
In portions of Grant and Coddington coun-
ties the want of moisture is noticeable, the
rain, however, that fell in these localities on
Monday last Will, 1t is Thought. be insgru-
mental ia bringing the yield no 70 what II
was last year Brown county has an ex-
ceptionally bright prospect before il and
the present outlook surpasses anything IN
the history of the county. In Southern
Dakota the corn crop is In excess of any pre-
vious year, and from present indications the
crop win not fall far short Of 20,000.000
bushels Oats and barley win be good av-
erage crop throughout the territory, and
roots are in excellent condition everywhere

tory is indebted to him for money overpaid
AS Mr. Colby, on his examination, claimed
that he had no memoranda nor record of any
kind showing the cost of these several im-
proYements, Examiner Harris says:
We take it that this report Of Mr.. Colby is 6Iss

tion of this work could not be estimated and as
there is the above shorta age IN the part OF the
